About our floor joint sealing in Poynings
Open joints take a beating from forklift and pallet-truck wheels. Each crossing knocks the unsupported edge until a crisp saw cut becomes a wide, broken groove. Filling the joint properly gives the edges back their support, which is kinder to trucks, loads and operators. Most enquiries involve old filler gone hard, cracked or loose and filler that has parted from one face, across joints along racking aisles, loading bays and retail and showroom floors. Most enquiries from Poynings start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In and around smaller places like Poynings, the concrete floors we see are often in converted farm buildings, small workshops and storage units. Whether it’s a farm store turned workshop or a storage unit, the joints need a product that suits the traffic.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll come back to it.

Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
- Keep photographs of joints that look like they’re failing
- Let us know what the floor is cleaned with
Young concrete carries on shrinking, so some fillers part slightly from one face. That is common and is normally dealt with by topping up once the slab has settled down.
Every vehicle on a busy aisle hits a damaged joint. Early treatment protects wheels, loads and drivers as much as the floor.
Leave it or put it right?
Dirt and spillage gather in open joints, out of reach of the floor cleaner. Where the floor is on show or needs to be kept clean, that is a problem. Filled joints are far simpler to keep clean. Older rural buildings around Poynings move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. For work around Poynings, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
- We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
- We clear each run back to clean concrete.
- We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
- Each area is handed back when ready for traffic.
Before we start on site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

FAQs: Poynings
Is Poynings too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Poynings are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is Aviation Trading Estate, near Poynings, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Poynings, Aviation Trading Estate among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
How do you choose the sealant?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
General trades versus a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Cost factors for floor joints
What shapes the price:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How accessible the joints are
- The product specified
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Before you send an enquiry
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Your programme or deadline
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The product your specification calls for

Where floor joints take the most wear near Poynings
Rainfall across the South East, Poynings included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, while winter salting gets into any joint left open. Poynings is about 42 miles from central London. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors.
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Henfield Business Park (2.9 miles north-west of Poynings): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time. Hospital campuses such as Southlands Hospital (4.4 miles south-west of Poynings) grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old. If you manage units on an estate such as Aviation Trading Estate, which lies north of Poynings, the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch.
